1 bit equals 0.000125 kilobytes

How to convert bits to kilobytes

Lowercase b means bit; uppercase B means byte (8 bits). Decimal kB, MB and GB use powers of 1000; binary KiB, MiB and GiB use powers of 1024. Choose the label that matches the source measurement.

Formula
kB = b ÷ 8000

One kilobyte corresponds to 8000 bits, so divide by that figure. Displayed constants may be rounded; the converter uses the stored factor before rounding the result.

Example
0.00125 kB = 10 ÷ 8000

About these units

bitb

The smallest unit of digital information: a single binary digit.

kilobytekB

Exactly 1,000 bytes (decimal). The binary equivalent is the kibibyte.

Sources and precision

Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
